About the Artist
Lyrics
What would we have done If you'd never come back? The world, what was it coming to The world, what was it coming to What more could we have done It carried on so long What was it coming to, the world What was it coming to When we dreamed in low resistance Of pioneering systems And listened to the words "we want to hear" You had a vision You were cutting your son's hair What a revelation You never saw yourself there What a revelation What a revelation What a revelation What a revelation
